The National Football League (NFL) Super Bowl has set an all-time record for a TV audience in the United States for the second year running.

An average of 111 million viewers watched the Green Bay Packers defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers 31-25.

Fox’s broadcast of Super Bowl XLV beat last year’s record of 106.5 million viewers to become the most-watched show in US television history.

Last year’s game finally defeated the series finale of M*A*S*H to the title, a record which stood for nearly three decades.
